the original (DOS) games do not work with the Win95 (aka Gold version).

Fortunately that link has both zip file versions of the missions, as I 
have both the DOS and Win95 games.

It's been soooo long since I played, that I've forgotten a lot of the 
missions. I used to know them all- and the covert ops as well! I've been 
playing AOK, and the graphics are great, but there's nothing like the 
original and the best! I love the sounds of C&C, and much prefer a game 
with tanks and modern weapons, than with warriors on horseback and bows 
and arrows! I remember your name from way back as something of an expert 
on the game. Would you happen to know if there is any info on the 
missions- like giving a description of each one- that I can refer to to 
refresh my memory? I seem to remember that someone wrote a very 
comprehensive FAQ once. I don't want to know strategy, just what the 
missions are. Thanks,

"I got a present for ya"

I got Roger Wong's FAQ, the one you spoke of, in a zip file.  108 KB
it also included is my Maps.txt and my personal tips file.

the maps file shows all playable arrows (Woo, find missions you didnt know
existed!!!  More C&C)
and a very brief description. ie:

level 8: two maps, both completely different mission objectives.  SCG08ea
(left arrow) and SCG08eb (right arrow).
level 9: two arrows, but both to one map. SCG09ea.

the tips file talks about how to start with more money at some levels. not a
cheat but a built in feature of the game.

I also have a list of the mission objectives. ie:
[SCG11EA]
"Intelligence operative, code-name Delphi, has info on Kane and a new
bio-research laboratory.  After landing on the beach here in Corinth
move north to make contact with him. Nod will attempt to stop you.
You must reach Delphi!"

I also have about 40 walkthrus of my own. fun reading. i can send you that
zip if you like, too (43 KB). ie:

"GDI level 11, Greece, SCG11ea (only one arrow).."Storming the Beach at
Normandy"
mission : Save Delphi
this is one of my favorites. after dying an awful death half a dozen times,
victory was sweet. also, just read as much as you need to get a start, and
come back if you get stuck. the below is the full story.... some people
suggest you continue east, but there are NOD scouts there, plus a flametank
to give you a warm welcome. Woosh, Ahhhh!"

I also have walkthrus for the harder Covert Ops.

Also, have you played the Dinosaur missions? No?  WOW more C&C.

Also, there are single mission and multi mission packs out there (all in
individual zips).  I have  about 30 for DOS, ad 16 for Gold (win95).  WOO
more C&C

Need i say, i got it all.  woo woo. Max build me some arty.
all i need is your permission (some people's email accounts has a size
limit) and an email address

I tried the win95 version, but the units are way too small. Big mistake 
of on Westwoods part to do that, since there's no way to change the 
screen resolution and make them bigger. Oh well, back to the DOS version 
even if the graphics are crappy by todays standards.

Hey man! You're the greatest!! Gimme whatever you got baby! (email link 
is on my web page in the sig below)

I just played Greece! I go east and set up near the tiberium fields on 
the east side. Then the first thing I do (after power station, 
harvester, and barracks) is sandbag vertically from the lower rock wall 
to the upper rock wall- virtually dividing the map in half. This stops 
me from any attacks. If your quick enough, you'll only get a few bazooka 
guys going after your harvester, and they can easily be taken out with 
some grenadiers, if they don't summarily dispatch themselves beforehand 
by wandering around in the tiberium. Then there's only the flame tank 
guarding the bridge, and that can wait until you've got some tanks to 
take care of it. Then you just build up your forces at leisure, free 
from attack. Then sandbag across to the tiberium fields in the west, and 
onto the NOD base to wall it off, and you are home and hosed.

Too small?  That's actually suprising.

With RTS games in style of C&C, I'm finding that the camera is too close to
the action, especially when there are only two indications about what is
going on - the main screen and the minimap.  As a result, I almost always
try to play with the largest view of the map.  

However, I do find that as the resolution increases, the minimap becomes
very difficult to see.  It took the developers long enough to actually fix
that problem.

No they are way smaller than in the DOS version. Too small for my 
liking, and smaller than the units in AOE/AOK.
